GPMD85Emulator

• multiplatform GNU/GPL emulator of the Tesla PMD 85, an 8-bit personal micro-computer produced in 80s of 20th century in former Czechoslovakia

Notice that GPMD85Emulator is not aimed to build and run on Windows, because there is our much better and feature-rich PMD 85 Emulator specifically for this platform (https://pmd85.borik.net/wiki/Emulator)
